Nginx reverse proxy issue

[KingPin]

Im testing etherpad-lite out on

• ubuntu 11.04
• node 0.4.11
• npm 1.0.26
• socket.io 0.7.9.

When I connect to etherpad-lite using the direct port everything works fine. but when I connect via nginx the page has no formatting, no images work and the system breaks down completely. an example can be seen at : http://pad.kpsn.org/p/KPsN. http://pad.kpsn.org/ by itself works perfectly, no css isuees and the page looks fine, its when i goto the individual pad that the issues creep up. my nginx config is below. I noticed the socket.io bug mentioned in the wiki but the pull seems to have been merged into the master and 0.7.9 came out after that merge.

server {
    server_name pad.kpsn.org;
    access_log /home/code/logs/pad.kpsn.org.access.log;
    error_log /home/code/logs/pad.kpsn.org.error.log;

    location ~ /\.ht {    deny  all;    }

    location / {
        proxy_pass             http://127.0.0.1:9001/;
        proxy_set_header       Host $host;
        proxy_buffering off;
    }
}

thank you for any help.

Is this your complete nginx config?

the problem is just that the static files are 404ing http://pad.kpsn.org/static/custom/pad.css

Try comment out the .ht bit and retry.

@Pita thats the complete config for this Vhost

@johnyma22 .ht bit shouldn't be the issue as .htaccess files aren't read either way, but removed, same issue.

[KingPin]

maybe some rewrite rules are needed for the pads themselves?

• i truly hate the goddamn comment and close button.....

[JohnMcLear]

@KindPin Do you have any other config files being loaded by nginx? IE is default still in sites-enabled ?

[KingPin]

@johnyma22 negative just the mime types etc. there are other vhosts but none interfere with this as far as I see.

[JohnMcLear]

We're pretty sure its an nginx config issue, gonna try replicate in an hour or so

[KingPin]

thank you.
ftr : nginx version: nginx/1.0.5 from ubuntu natty 11.04 repo

I just tested this config and it's fine. I moved default config out of the sites-enabled.

Try move default config out of sites-enabled then add listen 80; to your ep-lite nginx config.

Let me know

KingPin, did Pita get in touch? If not ping me and I take a look with you

Hi @johnyma22 apologies on delayed response, classes started a week or so ago so have been busy. im not sure why or how but a clean checkout of the repo fixed it all for me as far as I see. thank you for your time :)
